肥人多气虚,及体弱之辈,或病后未复元,突有劳动伤损经脉,手足因之软痿,不
得举动。须缓用大补气血自效,如服散药难痊。(方见后。)
病死之牛,必有毒聚之处,误食其毒处之肉,遂腹痛不止,无药针治,待死必矣。
肛脱日久不收,则脂液必干,尤难猝上,乃气虚不固,内进益气汤,提下陷之气,外
以熏洗方,(二方见后。)但内肠得暖,可收,遇冷则坠也。须月余方撤消。
鼓胀并诸病时,脾胃必衰,则消磨之权早失,误食杂豆,壅闭中焦,阴霾愈结,清
阳难升,遂多喘满不救者。
脾虚不能约水,水溢皮肤,致周身浮肿,名为子肿。加以腹中孕孩日吸母血,中气更
虚,水积愈甚,所以产时水下成桶,产妇与婴儿皆脱不救,须未产三月前,投补气顺胎
方,(方见后)。直至临产而止,可保二命。如产后误补,阻塞恶露生变。
婴儿生下,舌底总筋,连及下唇,不能吮乳。用剪刀,在下唇剪至舌底总筋处而止,
速止其血。一伤总筋,血流不止,则伤其命。
初生婴儿,肛门有薄皮包裹无孔,用剪刀剪开薄皮,以药速止其血,则肛自通。
小孩元气未充,再加病久失调,脏腑尤亏,遂致目光失明,或致背跎,或使足跛手
软,种种生理残障,不如早为补救犹可,不至缺陷。
左乳下隐疼,牵引胁肋咳嗽,与大便时亦痛,硬肿难溃,不能着左边卧。由肝气郁
结,或努力血瘀,谓之肝痈,以消坚散。(方见后。)
肥胖之人多伴有气虚,以及体质虚弱的人,或者病后尚未恢复元气,突然因过度劳动导致经脉受损,手足因此变得软弱痿废,无法活动。必须缓慢使用大补气血的方药才能见效,如果服用散剂则难以痊愈。(方剂见后文。)
死去的牛,体内必然有毒素积聚的地方,如果误食了这些有毒部位的肉,就会导致腹痛不止,如果没有药物或针灸治疗,等待死亡是必然的结果。
肛门脱出日久不能回纳,那么脂液必然干枯,尤其难以迅速复位,这是气虚不固所致,内服益气汤以提升下陷之气,外用熏洗方(两个方剂见后文),只要内部肠管得到温暖,就可以收回,遇到寒冷则会再次脱垂。需要一个月左右才能完全消退。
出现鼓胀以及其他疾病时,脾胃功能必然衰退,那么消化运化的权力早已丧失,如果误食杂豆等食物,会导致中焦壅塞闭阻,阴寒之邪更加凝结,清阳之气难以升发,于是出现多喘、腹胀满而无法救治的情况。
脾虚不能约束水液,水液溢于皮肤,导致全身浮肿,称为“子肿”。加上腹中的胎儿每日吸收母体血液,中气更加虚弱,水湿积聚更加严重,所以在分娩时水流如桶倾泻,产妇和婴儿都会因脱水而死亡无法救治。必须在产前三个月前,投用补气顺胎方(方剂见后文),直到临产为止,可以保全两条性命。如果在产后误用补法,会阻碍恶露排出从而引发变证。
婴儿出生后,舌底总筋(连接舌根与下唇的系带)过短,牵连至下唇,导致婴儿无法吮吸乳汁。用剪刀在下唇剪开至舌底总筋处停止,迅速止血。一旦损伤总筋,血流不止,就会危及生命。
初生婴儿,肛门被一层薄皮包裹且无孔洞,用剪刀剪开这层薄皮,用药迅速止血,肛门自然就能通畅。
小孩元气尚未充盈,再加上久病失调,脏腑尤为亏损,从而导致目光失明,或者导致驼背,或者使足跛手软,种种生理残障,不如尽早补救还可以,不至于留下缺陷。
左乳下隐隐作痛,牵引胁肋部咳嗽,大便时也会疼痛,局部硬肿难以溃破,不能向左侧卧睡。这是由于肝气郁结,或者用力过度导致血瘀,称为肝痈,采用消坚散结的方法治疗。(方剂见后文。)
Obese individuals often suffer from Qi deficiency, as do those with weak constitutions or those who have not yet recovered their primordial essence after an illness. Sudden physical exertion can damage the meridians, causing the hands and feet to become soft and flaccid, rendering them immobile. It is necessary to slowly administer formulas that greatly tonify Qi and Blood to achieve efficacy; taking powders will hardly cure it. (The formula is seen later.)
In a cow that has died of disease, there must be places where toxins accumulate. If one mistakenly eats the meat from these toxic areas, unceasing abdominal pain ensues. Without medicinal or acupuncture treatment, awaiting death is inevitable.
If prolapsed anus persists for a long time without reduction, the fatty fluids will inevitably dry up, making rapid repositioning particularly difficult. This is due to Qi deficiency failing to secure the interior. Internally, administer Yiqi Tang (Benefit Qi Decoction) to lift the sinking Qi; externally, use a fumigation and washing formula (both formulas are seen later). As long as the internal intestine remains warm, it can be reduced; if exposed to cold, it will prolapse again. It takes about a month for the condition to completely resolve.
When鼓胀 (Drum Distension) and other diseases occur, the Spleen and Stomach functions must be declining, meaning the power of digestion and transformation has been lost early on. Mistakenly eating mixed beans causes obstruction in the Middle Jiao, leading to further condensation of Yin pathogens and difficulty in ascending the Clear Yang. Consequently, patients often present with excessive wheezing and fullness, becoming incurable.
Spleen deficiency fails to control water, causing water to overflow into the skin, resulting in generalized edema, known as Zizhong (Fetal Edema). Additionally, the fetus in the abdomen absorbs maternal blood daily, further weakening the Middle Qi and exacerbating water accumulation. Thus, during delivery, water may gush out like a bucket, causing both mother and infant to die from dehydration. One must administer Buqi Shuntai Fang (Tonify Qi and Smooth Fetus Formula) three months before delivery, continuing until labor begins, to save both lives. If tonification is mistakenly used postpartum, it will obstruct lochia discharge and cause complications.
After an infant is born, if the Zongjin (Main Tendon at the base of the tongue) is too short and connects to the lower lip, the infant cannot suckle milk. Use scissors to cut the lower lip up to the Zongjin at the base of the tongue, then stop immediately to rapidly arrest bleeding. If the Zongjin is injured, unceasing blood flow will result, endangering life.
For a newborn whose anus is wrapped in a thin membrane with no opening, use scissors to cut open the thin membrane, apply medicine to rapidly stop bleeding, and the anus will naturally become patent.
Children’s Yuan Qi (Primordial Qi) is not yet fully developed. If prolonged illness leads to disharmony, the Zang-Fu organs are especially deficient, leading to blindness, kyphosis (hunchback), or foot lameness and hand weakness. Regarding such various physiological disabilities, early remediation is preferable to avoid permanent defects.
Dull pain under the left breast radiates to the hypochondrium and ribs, accompanied by coughing, and also hurts during defecation. The area is hard, swollen, and difficult to suppurate, preventing lying on the left side. This is caused by Liver Qi stagnation or blood stasis from excessive effort, termed Ganyong (Liver Abscess). Treat with Xiaojian Sanjie (Eliminate Hardness and Dissipate Nodules) method. (The formula is seen later.)
